B. Displacement is 2,000 meters, and acceleration is 1.14 meters/second2.
C. Displacement is 0 meters, and acceleration is 70.0 meters/second2.
D. Displacement is 2,000 met

Question

A race car completes the final lap of a race on a 2-kilometer circular track. At the start of the lap, it crosses the line at 60 meters/second. It completes the lap 28.57 seconds later, crossing the line at 85 meters/second. Calculate the displacement and average acceleration of the car within the span of 12 seconds

A. Displacement is 0 meters, and acceleration is 0.88 meters/second2.
B. Displacement is 2,000 meters, and acceleration is 1.14 meters/second2.
C. Displacement is 0 meters, and acceleration is 70.0 meters/second2.
D. Displacement is 2,000 met

egenriether · Answer

the displacement is its final position minus the initial position.  Average acceleration is the total change in velocity divided by the time it took to happen.
